The Internal Revenue Service says up to 350,000 households didn't get their $300 per child refund that should have been part of their economic stimulus rebate checks.

The tax agency says human error and computer glitches were responsible for the problem affecting a tiny percentage of the 130 million taxpayers expected to benefit from the paybacks.

The agency plans to mail out checks in July to those who missed out on the child refund.

At what point does someone finally stand up and say "Hey, you know, we have got to big as an organization; we can't even keep track of what is coming in and going out." The IRS needs to revamp on some things, if you can't measure it, how effective is your process.

Do they know how one can determine if they will get the child credit or do we just have to wait and see? I checked the IRS website and there is nothing about this on their site!
